"Delicious!" is a powerful energy
boost. The ultimate sports supplement made from dried persimmons presented to the Imperial Family.
There is a saying that "When persimmons turn red, doctors turn green," which is proof that persimmons have been considered good for the body. Persimmons have been treasured since ancient times for their nutritious effects. Dried persimmons in particular have a long history, and since the mid-Heian period they have been popular as high-end sweets for festivals and as emergency food supplies. Iginari's dried persimmon yokan has inherited this tradition of dried persimmons and adapted it into a modern food supply.
The only way to replenish energy during exercise is to eat. Especially under extreme conditions, the feeling of "It's delicious! I want to eat more!" is essential. This feeling is very important for mental encouragement and maintaining motivation. We believe that the necessary and sufficient condition for the ultimate energy replenishment that supports top performance is the feeling of "It's delicious!"
This is the ultimate collaboration between high-quality dried persimmons (Hoshinano Anpo persimmons, presented to the Imperial Family) grown in the natural environment of Zao, Miyagi, and a long-established bean paste maker with over 70 years of history, backed by the underground waters of the Nikko Mountains and the skilled techniques of its artisans. Furthermore, the natural sea salt of Miyako Island effectively replenishes the sodium, potassium, magnesium, and other minerals lost through sweating during sports. Because this product is intended for consumption in harsh conditions, we are committed to using only natural ingredients.
The easy-peel design makes it easy to open even while exercising, and if you can't finish it, you can fold the film in half and store it in your pocket. Furthermore, the design prevents the film from tearing and makes it difficult for small pieces of trash to fall out, making it environmentally friendly. The packaging used by Iginari is suitable for all sports and contributes to the realization of a sustainable society.
Most commonly sold energy supplements are high in calories and come in small amounts. Most of them focus on efficiently absorbing the ingredients needed for long-term exercise, such as amino acids, citric acid, caffeine, and magnesium. As exercise duration increases, physical fatigue can extend to the internal organs.
In particular, in endurance sports like triathlons and trail running, where frequent refueling is required, continuing to consume traditional energy supplements with stimulating flavors can be mentally distressing.
I have had the experience of struggling with refueling in the past few Ironman races I have participated in. I just can't get the food down my throat. I have to force myself to eat it, enduring the taste. Replenishing food towards the end of a race is especially painful. I want to make that pain a little easier.
To solve this problem, we developed a product based on the concept of
"simply delicious."
A dialect word meaning "very," "extremely," or "extremely" in Miyagi Prefecture, the birthplace of the product developer (Reboot Style).
"Iginari"
IGINARI is a delicious energy food.
"Iginari" is a corrupted version of "ikinari" (suddenly), and can also be corrupted as "iginashi" or "iginasu." The key point is the voiced consonant mark.
"Iginari" is ranked 7th in the ranking of commonly used Miyagi dialects.
When we eat something delicious, brain chemicals such as dopamine and beta-endorphin are released. Dopamine is also known as the "happiness hormone" and makes us feel joy and a sense of reward. This chemical reaction elevates our mood and temporarily reduces stress. Beta-endorphin is also known as the "brain drug-like substance" and creates a state of euphoria, leading to repeated use addiction that makes us want to eat more. The only way to replenish energy during exercise is to eat.
The more challenging the situation, the more important it is to feel "delicious! I want to eat more!"
